Most Favorable Review
ASUS Black 12X BD-ROM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-ROM SATA Internal Blu-ray Drive Model BC-12B1ST
ASUS Black 12X BD-ROM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-ROM SATA Internal Blu-ray Drive Model BC-12B1ST

Pros: Works as designed. Very good value. Glad i went with SATA3

Cons: None.

Overall Review: Windows Media Player does not support blu ray natively so you have to buy an after market player.. Total Media Theater does well. Just a heads up to include that in your budget.

Most Critical Review

Too Short

DoubleSight DS-224STA Dual Display Stand
DoubleSight DS-224STA Dual Display Stand

Pros: Very flexible horizontally, plus tilt and 90 degree swivel capability. Sturdy and well made. The stackable extension for monitors 3 and 4 plugs in the top. It is easy to set up. VESA.

Cons: TOO SHORT! At max height my 22 in monitors are still lower than the OEM stands they came on. Double sight sells an expensive 3 inch height extender that should come included. At the max out of the box height, you will not save any desktop space.

Overall Review: Please Double Sight - do like other firms and disclose max desktop to center of mount height on the box! Or include the 3 inch vertical extender in the box

For ASUS TPM-L R2.0 Compatible Trusted Platform TPM 2.0 Module 20 Pin Windows 11
For ASUS TPM-L R2.0 Compatible Trusted Platform TPM 2.0 Module 20 Pin Windows 11

Pros: Delivered per terms. Correct module. Seller was very good about delivery updates.

Cons: Not all motherboards will work with it due to mb manufacturer limitations. Read manufacturer website.

Overall Review: Product is as described. If you need Win 11 and your mb does not have it, a 3rd party module is needed.

Solid accessory. Easy to assemble

VIVO Black Dual Monitor Desk Mount Adjustable Stand, Fits Screens up to 30"
VIVO Black Dual Monitor Desk Mount Adjustable Stand, Fits Screens up to 30"

Pros: I have two of these - holds monitors well. Easy to assemble, adjust. Affordable.

Cons: The far pivots should be adjustable as one of my drooped a bit and no allen wrench turning would address. A little loc-tite does the trick.

Overall Review: Worth the money. I have two. Solid and stable. Wish the center post was stackable so I could easily go from 2 to 4 monitors.

Solid GPU

GIGABYTE Radeon RX 6700 XT EAGLE 12G Graphics Card, WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System, 12GB 192-bit GDDR6, GV-R67XTEAGLE-12GD Video Card
GIGABYTE Radeon RX 6700 XT EAGLE 12G Graphics Card, WINDFORCE 3X Cooling System, 12GB 192-bit GDDR6, GV-R67XTEAGLE-12GD Video Card

Pros: Runs FS 2020 flawlessly. Quiet. Good software. Fitment was solid

Cons: Minor (would have been nice to had addressable RGB fans)

Overall Review: Its a shame it has to be purchased through the Shuffle. Solid top of the line GPU and worth the money.

Sturdy. Easy to setup

VIVO MOUNT-VW02A Dual VESA Bracket Adaptor Horizontal Assembly Mount
VIVO MOUNT-VW02A Dual VESA Bracket Adaptor Horizontal Assembly Mount

Pros: Compact design. Holds 2 monitors mounted to a sheetrock wall with toggle bolts.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I would have liked a screw hole template for aligning and measuring. I would have liked to be able to mount the wall bracket and then be able to hang the crossbar.
